I've hesitated to post this, but as I've been shoveling gravel for the last couple of hours, there's been time to contemplate trees and tactics. Comments :?:

Aside from the fact that a respected NY barrister is (was) a member of this board, I have a couple of observations. The tree obviously violated the primary rule of gunfighting (no gun) and showed pretty poor movement to cover skills :lol:

With no disrespect to the tree, or the lawyer, it isn't often that we get to see a real world shooting. There are lots of lessons:

You can miss a whole lot closer than you'd think.
Trigger control does matter.

Been lusting after one of these for a while now. I contracted a serious case of Airgun Fever this spring and after buying the Springfield Armory M1A underlever .22 pellet rifle and having hella fun with it, I decided to pull the trigger (pun intended) on one of these, too. There are lots of...

Gun TalkWith this year's NRA BoD ballots just out, I thought I'd see if any of the longtime old hands had any thoughts. Personally, based on the reports at Save the Second right now I'm leaning toward "bullet voting" for Buz Mills and write-in Frank Tait and Rocky Marshall, but I welcome additional...
